BREAKING. Rick Santorum To Endorse Donald Trump?
RedState ^ | February 3rd, 2016 | streiff

Posted on 02/03/2016 3:04:48 PM PST by iowamark

Tonight Rick Santorum will be on Greta Van Sustern’s show on FoxNews. Donald Trump will also be on the show. Do the math.

If it happens, this is too bad. I’ve never been a Rick Santorum fan but I’ve always respected his passion for his beliefs. Hopefully, I am reading too much into the tea leaves here. But if he endorses Trump it will mean that he has effectively jettisoned the social conservatism that has been his raison d’être in order for whatever pottage Donald Trump provides.

he is brutally honest in fact

Shhhh. Ur not pose to say that. The dark helicopter crowd will say that he really means something else. I take the man at his word. I think Donald is a man for the "ages". Whatever is en vogue socially he has no ambition to upset. I am not worrying about Donald legalizing abortion. Number one, to some Roe v. Wade legalized infanticide. Number 2, I accept that he is opposed to abortion on demand. He has willingly taken that mantle. Even considering whatever has been said previous, that he would WANT to be pro life is a good thing to me. I support any endeavor he may seek towards that end.

What he knows instinctually to be wrong he will advocate to change. Including any "transformations" adverse to freedom. Just my gut feeling. If I'm wrong, So be it. We are no worse off than the globalist Uniparty eroding our sovereignty incrementally IMO.

We probably 1100 people at ours, 2 precincts in one location. It was run very well. Names were matched against voter registration lists and a ballot was handed out after you showed a drivers license or voter card..
I didn't see they ran out of anything.
I actually helped 4 years ago and know the people who did it this year.
The overwhelming attitude is to do it right.

I am surprised to hear of some Dem and Rep caucuses that didn't have enough staff or ran out of things. Everyone and their dog knew that turnout would be overwhelming ahead of time.

Yeah that guy

Clinton and Sharpton start to flap their gums about Trump, he can just come out and say “ why’d they ask me for money and take money from me?” By donating to democrats he hedged his bets as to whose influence he could buy- but now he pwns them

Just Iike he did to that little worm Linseed Graham

Cruz lives in Texas. He is not FROM Texas.

Big difference.

Great point!

Cruz has earned his reputation and now, finally, everyone is learning about it.

The guy is a climber since high school. His use of religion to hawk for votes has become comedy, but still captures the interest of those fewer and fewer who are impressed, at all costs.

Honestly, I look around at what so-called conservatives will tolerate, cover up and boost for bumps, and it says more about them, actually, than Cruz.

It is kind of unnerving to learn the lengths to which cult think will go to salvage some chameleon for AMNESTY, no less. Ick.

Suckers are born every minute.

TRUMP 2016

“Hmm...I guess a cabinet position offer talks!”

Well, Santorum definitely needs a job. Appears his string as a professional POTUS candidate has run out. Please God let it be so; including Huckabee, Kasich and Christie....

Ridiculous. I was born in VA but lived in Maryland most of my life. When people ask where I’m from I say I’m from Maryland. Most sane people would.

Look, out, Rick!

The FR Cruzer Long Knives will be out for you, still bloody from the body of Sarah Palin!

I watched Santorum at the Trump fundraiser for the veterans last week.

He likes Trump, and Trump's class.

You, your wife and I do not have a problem because we are not running for president. “Natural born citizen” is unique wording in the constitution whereas all other references are simply “citizen.” Anyone would deduce from that there must be a difference. Natural born is described by Vattel as BOTH parents citizens and born on the soil. Cruz does not qualify in any respect. Neither does Rubio because Neither of his parents were American citizens.
I would think in view of the FACTS, you would think it “silly” Cruz is thought by some to be eligible, and by others that it doesn’t matter. Let this go by and one more brick of the constitution has been removed from the foundation of this country. Next to go will be the Second Amendment. Maybe you don’t believe that one either?

So you actually had preprinted ballots? I have talked to several people (all Polk County) and NO ONE had an official ballot...it was all torn up pieces of scrap paper. Like I said, our location had a few of them.

This has gone on for years, and if widely known (which I am sure it is amongst campaign types) it’s not hard to imagine some extra votes getting thrown into the mix. How would you ever know? We had out of state campaign people there for several candidates. It’s not run by the SOS, and the party certainly isn’t going to admit...”hey, we had 300 votes but only 275 signed in.”

It just seems odd that such a potential (or actual) problem is not addressed when it would be as simple as making people use an official ballot.
